Which of the following is not correct for D ₂ O ?
Options
- ABVP is higher than H ₂ O
- BD ₂ O reacts slowly than H ₂ O
- CViscosity is higher than H ₂ O at 25^
- DSolubility of NaCl in it is more than H ₂ O
Correct answer
D. Solubility of NaCl in it is more than H ₂ O
Step-by-step solution
The b.p. and viscosity of D ₂ O is higher than water. Solubility of NaCl in it is less than H ₂ O because reaction velocity is slightly less in D ₂ O due to the that deuterium bond is strong than protium bond.
